STEC Autopilot
I have an STEC 55X in our 76 model and it reallly does not work well at all. I have spent thousands to have the computer, transducer etc. sent to STEC. We had a King KAP140 in out Cessna206 and it worked really well. Now, I am not trying to promote one versus the other but my impression after having both is that the STEC does very poorly capturing laterally and vertically. As usual, the avionics shop says it the autopilot, STEC says its the installation and I say......
Now STEC admits there may be an issue wih the servos and that there is a procedure to clean out the servos.....
Anyone else have this issue?
